Thea & The Wild Capture The Atrophy of Long Term Relationship In “When A Kiss Becomes A Habit”

Norwegian poptress Thea & The Wild takes the 80s cheekiness of pop and lacerates it with her own edgy flair her single “When A Kiss Becomes A Habit.” Built on a sharp staccato, the song radiates the classy ambient air of 80s where Thea’s glass-cutting vocals chants about a romance that has gone stale with time. If you want a bullshit-free banger that addresses the heart atrophy (figuratively) of every long term relationship, this is your jam:

“‘’When A Kiss Becomes A Habit’ was written at the beginning of a relationship – I was too caught up in my own head to be present, and instead was just worrying that it might all go away. It’s about that point when a relationship just flows and there’s no romance or excitement anymore.” shared Thea.

The track is from Thea & The Wild’s forthcoming second album Ikaros, which will be out on February 2nd via Propeller Recordings. Thea will start hitting the road on March:
